Could a 14 year old take a sleeping pill?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Insomnia in teens: First we need to find out what is causing the sleep disturbance in the teen. It's better to discuss with his pediatrician about the sleep issue and safe sleeping aid. Keep meds prescribed for adults away from the teen.
